Conducting polymers (CPs) is a relatively new field utilizing the unique electronic properties of a class of easily synthesized, primarily organic materials with the predominant property of high and controllable conductivity and subsidiary properties emanating from this conductivity and the associated causative electronic structure. Conducting Polymers, Fundamentals and Applications: A Practical Approach deals with the practical fundamentals and applications of conducting polymers. Written from a pedagogical point of view and at a very basic level this book provides a thorough grounding in CPs. Readers will find this book may be used as the basis for further work, as a reference, or as a text supplementing advanced undergraduate- or graduate-level courses.
